Baby (2) - S4-E21

Continuity mistake: When Hal is in the hospital and is trying to get up and leave, he has three straps holding him down. We see him unbuckling the top two, but he leaves the bottom one. In the next shot, the strap is unbuckled.

Bowling - S2-E20

Continuity mistake: When they are bowling, Malcolm decides to walk up the alley to make a strike. The shot behind him shows him walking into the lane. When the shot switches to the front, he's walking over the line again.

A Little Princess (1995)

Continuity mistake: When Sara first goes into the attic, she starts to draw a circle around her with a piece of chalk. When she starts the circle, she starts drawing next to the candle. When she completes the circle, the candle is now inside the circle. If you look at the lines on the floor when she finishes, you can see that she did not go around the candle.

sdgirl98

Continuity mistake: When Snape is insulting Hermione on being a know-it-all while he is substituting for Lupin, he has a slide show running. The shot shows Hermione with the projector behind her. The projector now changes slides fully and stops moving. When the shot changed back to Snape, the slide is still changing. It could not be the next slide because the slide changes every few seconds. (00:53:00)

Deliberate mistake: The wings of the hippogriff are much shorter when folded up than when flying. According to the animators, the wings would have to be huge to carry the weight of the hippogriff when flying, but so big that they would drag on the ground when folded up. So they deliberately made the wings shorter. (00:33:30 - 00:35:55)

Anastasia (1997)

Other mistake: In the song "A Rumor in St. Petersburg," according to the closed captioning, the characters sing the words "no proof of fact." According to the lyrics in the soundtrack booklet, they are actually singing "or through a crack." And if you listen, it's actually what they are saying.

Fluke (1995)

Visible crew/equipment: After Brian's mother tells Fluke to come with them in the cemetary, the shot cuts to Brian in the car and then back outside. It the bottom left hand corner, you can see a person kneeling there.

Fluke (1995)

Revealing mistake: When Brian's mother drives her car into the locked cemetary gate, it comes open much too easily.

Factual error: How could Brian get a cold after he was outside in the rain for a minute and was dried off right away?

Continuity mistake: When Jesus tells Peter to stop fighting against the temple guards when in the garden, you can see the background behind him: a small tree by a large one. The shot cuts to Peter and then back to Jesus telling him to again stop. The background is now reversed.

Agent Cody Banks (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Ronica first goes into the glass dome to tell Cody and Natalie that they need to go, Natalie grabs her jacket. Then a minute or so later, when they are standing with the head of E.R.I.S., she still doesn't have it on. Then the shot goes back to Cody and then back to Natalie being shoved into a chair. There she has the jacket on. There's no possible way she could have got it on because she was being held by E.R.I.S. workers.

Agent Cody Banks (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Ronica first finds Cody after he leaves to search for Natalie, the straps on the flying thing have shoulder straps. Later in the movie, they don't.

sdgirl98

Plot hole: The paper in Hermione's petrified hand would no way be that loose. It would have fallen out on the way to the hospital wing and the nurse would definitely notice it. (01:51:30)

sdgirl98

Continuity mistake: When it shows Harry writing in the diary, he writes "My name is Harry Potter." When he does this he says what he is writing. It shows what he is writing until he gets to the letters "Po..." Then the shot cuts out to Harry still continuing his sentence. But he only write about 1 or 2 more letters. That means he couldn't have finished his name. (01:28:10)

Pocahontas (1995)

Chosen answer: The hilt does, the blade doesn't - such is the case with all forms of light.

David Mercier

Question: When Harry's parents are shown in the mirror, are they supposed to be the age that they were when they died or the age they would be if they were still alive?

sdgirl98

Chosen answer: Since the mirror is reflecting Harry's desire, they are probably an idealized (to Harry) image of what they would look like if they were still alive.

Xofer

That doesn't explain how Harry could see rest of the Potter family. Surely, they weren't just in his mind?

In the movie he only sees his parents.

lionhead

Answer: He didn't just desire his parents but a whole family. Therefore he saw his entire family.

In the novel he saw his whole family. In the movie, he only saw his parents.

Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001)

Factual error: The beehive is a large part of this story for Archie wants to get it down for Ava. But bees do not make hives like that. The type of hive that they show is similar to a wasp's. (01:02:35)

Spaceballs (1987)

Continuity mistake: When Helmet is trying to hit Lone Starr with his Schwartz but Lone Starr is holding his head, you can easily tell that Helmet's Schwartz is made shorter so it won't hit Lone Starr.

sdgirl98

Factual error: Since it's cold and snowing throughout most of the movie, how come you never see the people's breath? This is because when they filmed these parts, it was very hot outside, but it's still a mistake.

sdgirl98

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Seeing a person's breath is not entirely dependent on how cold it is, but rather how much or how little humidity there is in the air.

Seeing your breath is based on how cold it is, however, with high enough relative humidity, you're able to see your breath in warmer temperatures. If it's cold enough to snow, it's cold enough to see your breath, regardless of what the humidity is.

Zoo - S4-E1

Continuity mistake: When the Tarantula is put on Hal at the zoo, the shot is only of a yellow shirt with the tarantula crawling on it. When the shot changes to where they show the whole Hal, you can easily tell that the tarantula is fake - it is larger than it was and is in a different spot on Hal's shirt.

Audio problem: When the letters come flying out of the fireplace, Dudley yells, "Please, make it stop." If you look at his lips during this time, they're not moving. (00:11:25)

Gordy (1995)

Continuity mistake: When they call the sausage company in Omaha, it is busy. When they show the phone in a couple shots later, it has more that one line and shouldn't have been busy.

sdgirl98

8th Dec 2003

Gordy (1995)

Continuity mistake: When they travel from Missouri to Omaha to the sausage factory, they act like it only took an hour or so. (You can tell because it is still dark outside). In reality, that should have taken hours.

Gordy (1995)

Plot hole: Gordy doesn't seem to grow. This movie has to take place over several months and pigs grow very fast.

Plot hole: When the main character opens up his CD player, he sends out the laser that's inside. This would not work, because all CD players turn the laser off automatically when opened.

The Mighty (1998)

Continuity mistake: When Kevin sleds down the hill, he flies through the air when he reaches the dead end and he crashes face first into a pile of snow. By the way he falls it seems he only fell a few feet because he did not hit the ground hard. But in reality, he was falling about ten feet.

Continuity mistake: When Cody is trying to save the young boy from the runaway car, he sticks his head in from the top. He pulls the brake just in time to stop the car from crashing into a train.

A Little Princess (1995)

Continuity mistake: During Sara's birthday party, she gets a blindfold tied over her eyes. When it was first tied, one end is long (about two feet) and the other short (about 6 inches). In a couple of shots later, the short end is only about 2 inches long. How did it get shorter?

sdgirl98

Continuity mistake: When Padme is stuck in the barrel and the melted metal to pour on to her, R2-D2 comes to the rescue. The problem is, by the time R2-D2 comes to stop it, the melted metal should have already poured on to her. It only took a few seconds for the metal to fill the other barrels. (01:41:30)

sdgirl98

Continuity mistake: In the beginning where Padme and Anakin are about to leave Coruscant, Padme says, "Take good care of Dorme." Shortly after, one of her workers has a tear of worry. This tear disappears behind her nose and in the next shot the tear path is dry.
